If you look in MLB that is not necessarily true. And Blacksburg is no
pitching Mecca. I would take what we had over what is happening now.

Wasn't because of Feactu.
Was because of pitching labs during the offseason with different pitching coaches

What is causing this debacle?

Yeah, 6 walks and 5 homers allowed through 5 innings is not a winning...
recipe. I expected our hitting to be inconsistent and a relative weakness this year but I figured out pitching would at least be moderately improved but it's been pretty rough most of this year. And with injuries starting to mount, there doesn't seem to be a likelihood that we can improve in this area.

And UVA has only given up one walk- is it too late to get some walk-ons
From campus?? Eg former HS pitchers??If you are going to lose, it should be thru HITS and never walks ** Edited by sacramento hokie at 3/14/2026, 3:39:58 PM

Berzonski has given us 3 good innings so far. He's been the lone bright
spot on the mound so far.

His outing could set us up for our best shot at a win tomorrow...
Similar to last weekend, after getting beat handily in the first two games, we'll have Stieg on the mound for a Sunday game with Crowl, Craytor and Swift all options out of the bullpen. If we can salvage a win tomorrow, it would be a decent outcome despite how bad we have looked. I will be eager to see how we fare against non-Top 25 teams. It is pretty clear we are no match for top tier teams but maybe we can find a little success with what should be a more manageable part of our conference schedule.
